  • Ocean Stories - The Fascinating World of Life Underwater | Ocean Documentary
    Watch 'Adventure Ocean Quest: Discovering Another World' here: • Adventure Ocean Quest:...
    Part 1 - 00:00:00
    Is there any truth in the legend that Sperm whales, the largest carnivores on earth, live in the depth of the Mediterranean? And what about the monk seals, one of the most endangered mammals on earth? Very little is known about the elusive seals that once populated most beaches from Greece to Spain.
    Part 2 - 00:50:06
    The Ocean Sunfish or Mola is the biggest and one of the most weird bony fish in the Pacific as well as in the Mediterranean Sea, normally living in the unreachable deep sea. In Florida we meet the massive but gentle Manatees, and see how they live, and how they are endangered.
    Part 3 - 01:39:17
    About 10 years ago Ute Margreff got to know the female solitary dolphin Mara -- it was the start of an unusual friendship. In the Pacific Northwest, Florian Graner found his private paradise close to Seattle, where he dives into a world inhabited by sea lions, giant octopuses and orca whales.
    Teeming with marine wildlife, our oceans are full of fascinating stories - like that of the sperm whale, the biggest predator on earth, that lives in the Mediterranean alongside the elusive monk seal. Underwater filmmaker Thomas Behrend takes us to the habitat of the ocean sunfish with the help of a high-tech submarine camera. And while giant octopuses and manatees are the heroes of another story, a marine biologist tells us about her unique friendship with a dolphin on the Irish coast

    WOW!!! That bit when a baby whale was born was so beautiful, how they all came together to protect the new mother as she gave birth and then chase away the cameraman as they also dealt with a new baby. I know we are not supposed to endow animals with human characteristics but wow how can we not when we see that? That was one of the most awe-inspiring bits of film I have seen in years. Thank you for such work, that was amazing.

    High school used to make an annual trip to Crystal River to swim with manatees..if you were making a good grade in the Marine biology class. I was fortunate enough to get a chance to do it. I actually have a photo of myself with Bob (the marine biologist shown in this documentary)...it was 1977. I almost fell over when I saw him in this film!! Fond memories. Manatees are the gentle giants they appear to be and I hope they can survive and thrive.

    so grateful that there are people like the ones in this video, who have special connection and caring for the animals. We all should be contributing towards
    saving these precious creatures and stop robbing the planet and animals of
    all the things they need for survival. We're supposed to work in harmony with all of creation, not be greedy and destroy so much! I pray that we still can halt the destruction of this marvelous planet and protect the creatures on it. Let
    more areas be designated as protected, so that those species can recover
    from near extinction. This is so very touching, thanks to all the special people
    in it and the filmmakers also. Bless the goodhearted people!

    Manatees are so playful where I grew up in FL (Pasco County, I love just a county over in Tampa so continue to go there ) .
    They will come up as you clean your boats and play in the water if you spray the hose in their direction from the docks. They also sniff and wiggly their whiskers around . It’s sad cause people probably feed them at the sandbar so they now follow boats even more . Which ends up causing more injuries.
    Weeki Wachee springs and Crystal River ,Florida , areas there are places you can swim with them too . Such magnificent creatures.

Its so sad that the almighty dollar drives everything. Love for Hashem and care for his creatures and eachother is what was meant to drive everything. Thats where true value lies. If only we could base value around this.

Got kind of close to those whales, but what an amazing thing to see, a baby whale being born! The group is there to support the mother. I always knew that whales were very social animals and that they form close pods, this proves it.

I recently watched a documentary about different species of whale. In one part of this documentary one of the whales was making almost the exact same sound as that seal you filmed when you were in the Mediterranean with those two different biologists, this "new puzzle" this film is titled titans of the deep filmed by a french film maker Francois something , perhaps you can look into it.

And most don't try learning another language until they are out of school.

      Kinda like when i saw a news thing, several years back, about there supposedly being a whole bunch of actual Whales that were stranded in the Everglades...along with some Dolphins. Pretty weird... Although, really, anything IS possible; God really DOES preserve His Creation AND makes all things new again, with LOVE for us all. Parts of this, though, felt a little weird to me...like, maybe they were actually at the Aquarium for certain parts... I am very thankful that I do not have to figure it out. That is not my job. I am ALSO thankful that I KNOW, from experience, that there IS more on this planet to go see and to enjoy, share and experience than just simply one county, one state, or even one country. You know, I have absolutely experienced Manatee in the ocean; the first time I encountered one on an actual total saltwater beach, I was afraid for it, kinda...but, it was fine! In fact, it is still here, grown and doing wonderfully IN THE WILD, under only God's control, as it should be.

      Yeah, knowing it's God's work is good enough. But God's work is interesting. The everglades were created and are maintained by the crocodiles, which gave a home to most manatees. Evolution either is a conscious being, or a creator, God, did it with extreme care. Random events out of nothing, seems a bit more ridiculous, but hey! It's good I know. You and me just gotta let everyone else know, without turning it into a fight, or debate, but just in love.

    Would it be possible to extend the caves internally with a ramp that will allow the seals to get further from the water? I realize that it is more human interference. However, it's humans that drove them to the caves in the first place. But if the caves extended further back at a 30 degree slope with an artificial and braced area (like a mineshaft), the population of seals might be less vulnerable.

      The fact that our creator made man to love him and care for and watch over all the earth and the creatures on it means we are not interfering when we do good things for THEM. We interfere when the reason we do things is for us. Like taking their beaches. We absolutely should have natural hospitals and give medical care to injured wild animals instead of this whole "let nature take its course" mentality. We should not interfere with hunting, but aside from that, we should most definitely clean up earth and care for the creatures of it. The major change we as a whole species would see if we actually cared for the earth, its creatures, and eachother would be so drastic, so emense, so brilliantly positive, that it would usher in an entirely new age of humanity, a new age of peace and well being. Far too many simply don't care. Thats not just sad but disastrous...

I love Orcas and always have, they're awe inspiring in so many ways. Before I retired we had come to the realization that the 2 pods had gotten to the point of no longer having enough viable sexually active females among them to calf and continue their resident permanent Orca population to grow and instead it's now inevitable both pods will go extinct very soon, with two calves being lost to those pods also in the last couple years took away any hope that might be reversed.
